Yamaha Motor Europe N.V. presented the new 2017 off-road YZ range on Friday June 17th at the MXGP of Great Britain, Matterley Basin. Yamaha MX stars Romain Febvre and Chad Reed unveiled the YZ250F and YZ450F models, along with further selected 2017 off-road machines.

American AMA Supercross superstar Reed was present alongside Febvre to share his thoughts on the YZ250F.

"I used the production YZ250F in 2001 and was winning races on it," Reed said. "Much has changed since then, but in 2017 the key improvements are better acceleration, increased pulling power in the mid to high rpm range, a smoother clutch feeling and refined suspension and handling to enhance stability and control."

You'd have thought someone would have corrected the year before publishing... Reed was on a KX 250 in 2001.
